Sanford Clinic announced today additional medical services will soon be available to people in the Aberdeen community. Sanford Clinic physicians in the specialties of cardiology and pulmonary now are accepting appointments in the Aberdeen area. Cardiologists James Olson, M.D. and Orvar Jonsson, M.D. along with pulmonologist Richard Hardie, M.D. will travel to Aberdeen to see patients on an outreach basis beginning July 23, 2007. Drs. Olson, Jonsson, and Hardie will see patients in space leased in the new United Clinic building at 3015 3rd Avenue in Aberdeen.

"Sanford Clinic physicians believe patient care is best delivered as close to home as possible," says Sanford Clinic President Dan Blue, M.D. "Adding these physicians to the list of pediatric physicians who plan to do outreach in the Aberdeen area means fewer patients will need to travel to receive quality medical care."

Last month, Sanford Clinic announced plans to lease space in the new United Clinic building in order to expand pediatric services to the area. Pediatrician Julie Mayo, D.O. will lead the new Sanford Childrens Clinic Aberdeen. In addition, Sanford pediatric subspecialists in the areas of pulmonary, endocrinology, orthopedics, rehabilitation, and cardiology will travel to the community to see patients also beginning July 23, 2007.
